Question

What is the answer for ½+¼⅝​

Answer 1

`\displaystyle 1(3)/(8)`

Explanation:

first thing I guess we missed a plus sign or whatsoever

`\displaystyle (1)/(2) + (1)/(4) + (5)/(8)`

when we add different fraction the step is to find the LCM of the denominator therefore,

`\displaystyle \text{LCM}(2,4,8)`

`\displaystyle = 8`

now the second step is to divide the LCM by the denominator and multiply it by the numerator which yields:

`\displaystyle (4 + 2 + 5)/(8)`

and the final step is

simplify addition:

`\displaystyle (11)/(8)`

convert it to mixed fraction which yields

`\displaystyle 1(3)/(8)`

and we are done!

Answer 2

1 3/8

`SOLUTION`

`add \: (1)/(2) + (1)/(4) + (5)/(8)`

`= (4 + 2 + 5)/(8)`

`= (11)/(8)`

=1 3/8

I hope it helps

have a great day
